  • Page 60 DS2100N/DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL The installation of the deflection mirror is very easy. 1) Clean the OM2000N mirror surface and output window (internally and externally) with a clean soft cloth and alcohol before assembling it to the scanner. CAUTION: All abrasive substances must be absolutely avoided as they cause irreparable damage to the transparency of the glass.
  • Page 61 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 5) In the indicated space on the front side of the OM2000N, apply the relative replicate scanner serial number label provided with the scanner itself (see Figure 35). Figure 35 – Apply Replicate Scanner SN Label The reading distance of the scanner with the OM2000N is shifted by 10 mm towards the scanner because of the internal optical path between the scanner and the OM2000N output window.
  • Page 62 DS2100N/DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL The reading distance also depends on the amplitude of aperture used. In particular, wider apertures require the scanner to be closer to the code in order to read at the extreme edges of the sweep (see Figure 37 below).
